@TheProjectUnity For a short while you might.

@olivvrszn Once upon a time most people were farmers. Unfortunately the world changes and individuals can't control it. It seems to mostly change in ways we don't like. It's unlikely to change back to what we would prefer. Institutions do what they do and pay for what they want to pay for.

@barush2536 @FinancialPhys You must be remembering it wrong because math and all that.

Maybe Belarus will be more reliable than Canada and cheaper transportation costs due to it being a landlocked country. On a side note, something is wrong with all of our AI's. They all think the idea has problems ...contrary to reality. #arpx

Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko says Belarus cannot supply potash to the United States under Donald Trump's proposed "deal" with Belarus.

Lukashenko said today, "Even if we wanted to supply somewhere else, Western markets, we just don't have those volumes, everything has been contracted."

Donald Trump announced on Truth Social earlier that he was working on a "massive Deal with respect to the purchase of Potash from Belarus. The pricing would be for substantially less than we are currently paying to Canada."

It appears that Lukashenko just counter-signalled Trump's announcement.

@mjdgehri @JonathanTurley A free for all in court between all of the parties where a government agency will always have more lawyers seems fairer to some.

Some people like a pre-nup arrangement, some like to pay the lawyers to fight it out later. So its a subjective opinion all around.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

@Polymarket She didn't claim it, she reported that the claims had been made.

@iowahawkblog Its an arms race. No country can trust the others. Its not a thing you can trust but verify either like nukes. Not much of a way out of this arms race.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

Not sure how Ukraine did this but sure they are to blame. #arpx

[The Hormuz Letter @HormuzLetter]

BREAKING: Saudi Aramco has cancelled all of its September European crude oil allocations and is scrapping every cargo slated for late-September loading onward, with a European lifter saying no Saudi oil cargoes at all until November, per initial reports citing oil trading firm Onyx and market sources.

That takes the world's largest exporter out of the European market for the rest of September and all of October, a de facto force majeure on Saudi crude to Europe from the 3rd largest energy producer in the world.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

Slowing AI development makes perfect sense.

But we can't trust other nations to actually comply. Other nations can't trust us to comply. There is no way to "trust but verify".

Its an arms race I don't really see a way out of.

@duke_canuck Well, IF she doesn't look lovely now she at least did once. Not sure all of us have that going for us based on our attitudes.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

We're going to blame Ukraine defending itself for the oil problems...and all the problems the oil problems cause. #arpx

Trump: "Zelenskyy has to do one thing -- he has to stop knocking out diesel fuel in Russia. He's causing a shortage of diesel fuel. This isn't done by the Middle East, this is done by what's happening with Russia and Ukraine."

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

@Kalshi Ultimately its just going to be given to the Keebler elves. (Santa's elves won't qualify since its sort of a non-profit gig).

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

@LarryJones Checked my records to see if a middle finger has ever influenced me to vote how the finger flipper wanted.

I see no record of it being an effective election strategy.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

It should be accepted. Yet it will be rejected by both sides. But becoming "tribeless" isn't as hard to deal with as it seems at first. #arpx

[Sara Larsen @SaraLarsen1234]

Yesterday I made a joke about Charlie Kirk’s murder. My actions and my words are my own. I do not represent anyone other than myself. Upon reflection, it was wrong for me to celebrate, or perpetuate the celebration of, Charlie Kirk’s death. I apologize for doing so sincerely. Nobody should be murdered or persecuted for their speech.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

See why I switched my position on lifting the cap? My feelings toward them being taxed are now mirrored....to advance American interests. #arpx

[Russ Greene @GreenPlusAnE]

Social Security pays retirees far more than they paid in, so we should be feel free to adjust their benefit formula as necessary to advance American interests.

Today is the day we take a break from a moderate mid-term election lead to celebrate a political assassination and disgust most independent voters to make it harder on ourselves for fun! #arpx

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

Houthis are an Iran proxy. It was obvious they were going to do this from day one. Saudis can't take out the Houthis in a land fight so somebody is surely going to have to do it for them. #arpx

[OilPrice.com @OilandEnergy]

If true, this is very serious. The East-West pipeline is Saudi Arabia’s critical bypass around the Strait of Hormuz.

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

Lol. #arpx

[David Burge @iowahawkblog]

Well I'm proud to get my dividend
And everything for free
And I'd to thank the president
Who gave that stuff to me
And I'd proudly STAND UP
Next to him and defend him still today
Because there ain't no doubt I love free stuff
God Bless the USA

[Snarkinsaw @Snarkinsaw]

Exactly how much stuff have we lost just sitting on tarmacs in this war? #arpx

[OSINTdefender @sentdefender]

According to @JenniferJJacobs and @JimLaPorta of CBS News, a number of U.S. aircraft were damaged in last night’s Iranian strikes on Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan. Per the report, an A-10 “Warthog” was damaged, leaving it with a missing wing, and approximately 8 F-15s were damaged but returned to service. Additionally, over 30 Patriot missile interceptors were used during the inundation of Iranian fires overnight.
